Chapter 2606: The Final Tear
Zu An was stunned. He'd never considered that issue. Given its mysterious background, he'd always assumed that it was normal for the Keyboard System to have skills that others had never heard about. However, now that the Goddess of Wu Mountain had pointed out this issue, he couldn’t help but think deeper about it.
It wouldn’t be a stretch to say that this was the golden era of cultivation, with powerful shamans and celestials all over the world. Besides that, the Goddess of Wu Mountain was the Flame Emperor’s daughter. She wasn't as strong as the powerhouses of this era, but she had vast knowledge of the world.
For someone as knowledgeable as her to have never heard of this ability, there could only be two possibilities: One, the ability didn’t exist in this world. Two, the ability hadn’t been created in this era.
If it were the former, it would suggest that there were stronger worlds out there. Zu An was mentally prepared for that, but nevertheless, this was the legendary Celestial Court! The people he'd met thus far were mythological figures he had grown up hearing about. He couldn’t imagine what even more powerful entities would be like.
If it were the former, it would mean that ‘Farewell, Nanchao’ would be created someday in the future. This experience of transmigrating into the past gave Zu An a better grasp of spacetime and historical events. Thus, he knew this ability could have been created through a similar process.
Was I the one who created this skill in history?
He thought about it, and felt that he was the only one who would be motivated to create such an ability. That was a grim thought. To be honest, Zu An didn’t like the feeling of traversing into the past. The slightest misstep could spell disaster. If something similar to the Frost Palace scenario were to happen several more times, he didn’t know if his heart could take it.
“What’s wrong?” the Goddess of Wu Mountain asked worriedly.
“I had a few bad conjectures.” Zu An snapped out of his thoughts. “Yaoji, thank you for taking care of them.”
“You don’t need to thank me for this. I’m used to being alone. Their company soothed some of my loneliness.” The Goddess of Wu Mountain smiled. Under the rays of the morning sun, she looked so beautiful that even the other ladies were mesmerized.
